Hero is the kindest boy you could ever wish no one or have on your yard. He lives in or out, perfect to catch , loads and travels perfectly , excellent for the farrier , easy for any member of the family to handle. He’s so quiet on the yard , you wouldn’t even know you have him!
Push button and beautifully schooled on the flat. Snaffle mouthed , nicely forward while still being a leg in each corner type. Three very comfortable and attractive paces , self sufficient onto the bridle and exceptionally beautiful both to ride , and to watch!
Hero pops any fence! While I can’t see him jumping around a newcomers , he will give you loads of fun up to about 90/1m ! He never says no. He’s a very forgiving type of who takes no offence of a rider error. Competed in many unaffiliated very low level little shows with current owner. From dressage to showjumping , hacking to cross country schooling and on to hunting … Hero is a hero in every sphere.
Hunts all day long at the front or the back. Stands well at the meet and remains his mannerly self throughout. Hunted with small packs and the bigger packs at opening meets etc! Not to mention, he’s got the hunt horse look hasn’t he!
Hacks out like a dreamboat! Alone or in company , through the heaviest traffic you’ll find or ambling around big open fields and woodlands , I’m yet to find something he won’t do or doesn’t like!
There’s not many ‘Hero’s’ on the market!! Up to date with everything.

While he’s very straightforward, I’m not looking to sell to a complete novice. He’s a big boy with a small engine so doesn’t deserve a bouncing around novice as that’s not been his gig. Although I’ve absolutely no doubt he’d been more than kind enough to give the odd lessons here and there or plonk the novice husband on to follow you for a hack. I’d just like him to have a competent home where he can be enjoyed and have lots of fun.
